STOVE ATTAC H M ENT.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 242,829, dated June 14,1881.

Application filed January 8, 1881. (N0 model.)

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JAMES J. LAWLER,-acitizen of the United States, residing at Scranton, in the county ofLackawanna and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new anduseful Improvements in Stove Attachments; and I do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains tomake and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a partof this specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in stove attachments; anditconsists in the horizontal pipeA,having projecting upward therefrom theelbowed heat-receptacles and lid-holders B B, and lids b b, the damperG, and in the peculiar combination and arrangement of the parts withrelation to the stove and combustion-pipe, as hereinafter more fullyshown and described.

In the drawings, Figure 1. is a plan view of my device. Fig. 2 is atransverse section thereof.

A represents a horizontal pipe, located ordinarily near the same planeas the top of the stove, and forming a part of the smo e or combustionpipe. It is provided with the heatrcceptacles or elbows B B, which openinto it, and these elbows have resting thereon and rigidly securedthereto the metallic rims or disks ea, which are shouldered, as shown,for reception of the-lids b b.

0 represents a damper, which is designed to cause the heat, togetherwith the products of combustion, to be diverted from the ordinarychannel and communicated to the lids b 40 b or cookingutensils locatedon the disks a a.

My invention, which may be attached to and become a part of any stove orstove-pipe, presents many advantages. Any kind of fluid may be boiledthereon, and heatingstoves thus be employed for cooking purposes;besides, the same device may be attached to the smokepipes ofcooking-stoves, and an economy he thereby efi'ected in the constructionof such stoves.

It will be observed from the peculiar arran ge ment of the damper O inrelation to the combustion-pipe and the elbowed heat-receptacle that theamount of heat brought into contact with the lids b b may by sucharrangement be simultaneously and accurately adjusted in each elbow tosuit the character of the cooking to be performed. Indeed, suchconstruction and arrangement for stove attachments I deem of chiefimportance, and it is obviously essential in order to temper or vary thedegree of heat to suit articles differing in character, and requiring agreater or less intensity of heat to accomplish the intended purposeartistically and withoutinjury to such articles by burning or too rapidcooking.

What I claim is- In a stove attachment, the damper O, in combinationwith the elbowed heat-receptacles B B,'disks a a, lids b b, andhorizontal smoke-pipe A, substantially as shown, and for the purposedescribed.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

JAMES JOSEPH LAWLER.
